Clare's Optically Isolated I2C Bus Repeaters are the industry's first integrated optical solutions for I2C bus design that:
- Minimize PC board space usage
- Reduce parts count for this function
Unlike magnetically isolated digital isolator ICs, this optical solution:
- Needs no internal clocking, which is a primary source of EMI/RFI interference
- Supports direct static-state buffering without refresh clocks
The CPC5903 features excellent reliability and very long operational life. Contact Clare for available reliability data.
The internal isolation barrier is tested above 6kV peak in the same way that other robust optical devices from Clare have been tested for the past 25 years.
